Vatican rejects proposal to allow sermons by Catholic women
"VATICAN CITY, June 23 (Reuters) - The Vatican on Tuesday reaffirmed a long-standing rule that only an ordained priest or deacon can give a sermon at a Catholic mass, rejecting a request from German bishops to broaden the practice and allow sermons by women or other laypeople."
Mary Magdalene: "Hey, guys, I was just at Jesus' tomb and I've got some good news---"
Peter: "Stop it with your women's talk nonsense. I'll go check it out and report back."
And that's been the story for the 2000 years since!
as a Catholic myself, a trained chimp could deliver those god damn sermons. It's the same shit on a yearly basis like clockwork. if a Woman wants to do that then what's the problem? Sing, routine prayer shit, reading directly from the bible the exact same passage from the same time last year, kneel, stand, kneel, sing, more routine, communion, kneel, stand, more singing.
Seriously, a trained chimp.
You're a trained chimp?
I'm definitely replacing "sincerely" with "seriously" for all my correspondence.
Seriously, A minimally-trained chimp
Phoebe the deaconess would like a word about that. Given Paul thanks her for being a "diakonos" or deacon of the church in Cenchreae. They honor the Bible but prefer their own accumulated traditions over scripture.
Catholics: Fucking people over since 33AD.
*Fucking little boys
The highest rank a woman can achieve in the Catholic Church will continue to be Nun....
Is a Mother Superior considered a higher rank than regular nun? Or is it like tech lead, more responsibilities but same pay.
If they don't appeal to misogynists who else will they attract?
